To remove cover:
1) Open the enclosure completely and provide adequate support to keep the cover from being damaged dur-
ing disassembly.

(closed end) so that the pin becomes unseated at the other end (approx. 1/4”)

and 2 to remove the second hinge pin.

6) Using a small hammer, gently tap the hinge pin into the corresponding hole in the base until the end of the
pin is fully seated and flush with the cover surface. Repeat this step for the second hinge pin.
